How good is MD Art pipes?

I see everyone switching to MD Art pipes.

Does MD Art pipe make the exhaust louder over the test pipes/resonated test?
How good does it sound?
Performance better?

I have a Ark grip true dual exhaust v2 (exhaust has X-pipe) with resonated megan test pipes.

Just want to know before i make my decision to switch over to MD art pipes

They are actually a tiny bit quieter than Test pipes or even resonated test pipes.

They will cut down on rasp created from your RTPs and give you nice overall gains.

THEY ARE THE BEST.
but seriously, my dad just put them on his sedan.
they aren't much louder at idle. they are a bit louder under light driving conditions, but under WOT, your VQ will scream!
my dads running a tomei expreme header, ART pipes, tanabe Y-pipe, and tanabe medallion exhaust (Same setup as candlestickpark besides the tomei header).
you can feel more torque at the bottom end.

Does MD Art pipe make the exhaust louder over the test pipes/resonated test?
from my experience, just a little bit
How good does it sound?
very good, my dads sedan has very little to no rasp
Performance better?
YES, especially at the bottom end.

Best investment ive made. These things make power, most noticibly down low. I switched from Fast Intentions RTPs and the gains over those were immense!

Possibly the best performance mod for the G excluding turbo/superchargers not to mention the sound they make is pure sex over any HFC's or TP's

These don't pass emission's correct? How easy would it be to go back and forth from these to oem?
